Backstory

Being a muggleborn Ravenclaw was fairly difficult at first; I knew less than my peers and was expected to excel in academics. In muggle classrooms, I was proficient and expected the same ease to come from wizarding school. I was shocked by the amount of knowledge my housemates had and hated being in Ravenclaw for a long time. Although my muggle parents support me, being at school without them here didn't aid my feelings of discomfort. I spent most of my time with the house ghosts, studying religiously or practicing magic by myself. The ghosts here have quickly become a source of guidance for me; when I revealed my feelings about being in Ravenclaw, I was lectured on the true meaning of being a Ravenclaw. A Ravenclaw is not measured by the knowledge possessed, but the hunger to explore and to learn. Since then, I have become a proud Ravenclaw and particularly enjoy Astronomy, Herbology and Care of Magical Creatures. Although becoming a Magizoologist does not require schooling, I am diligent in my studies (though I am guilty of occasionally procrastinating). Natural magics attract me and I am often open for tutoring!
